UDP Socket File Sharing
Hai,
I am having one server/client both running in different host in UDP. How can i assure whether the data is recieved properly in client side. I am writing 250 KB in Server and client reading only 150 KB data. I am using select write in server and select read in client also.If i am putting one usleep of 1 ms in server it is working fine. How can i resolve this issue.

Thanks And Regards

Andrew

This is UDP, you know. Not even order of packets is guaranteed.

You will need a scheme like sliding window to prevent too much from being sent at once, so the client can acknowledge, so the client can reassemble the frames into the right order, and so you know when to resend(when the client doesn't acknowledge within a certain time).
